hair color ideas Celebrate Pride With a Rainbow Hair Color Using Colorista Spray

June not only kicks off the summer season, but it’s Pride month, too, so there are many reasons to get outside and celebrate. Pride is about honoring and supporting the LGBTQ+ communities through action, celebrations like parades and festivals, and fostering self-expression of any form. 

One of the ways that many show their support (and self-expression) is by sporting the rainbow flag of the LGBTQ+ communities. And what better place to show off your pride this year than in your hair. It lets you pay homage to this beloved symbol while also sporting a fun hair color and vibrant hairstyle. 

How to Use Colorista 1-Day Hair Color Spray to Show Pride With Your Hair

Wearing your hair in any color — natural or not — can be a symbol of pride in general. Perhaps your natural color reminds you of family members who share the same hue, or maybe dyeing your hair a different shade is a form of self expression for you. If you’re looking to sport a rainbow hue for Pride this year, you can achieve it by using the L’Oréal Paris Colorista 1-Day Hair Color Spray — no commitment necessary. 

This temporary hair color spray is formulated with pure pigments which means that it will show up vibrantly on the hair without any bleaching. It works for all hair types and hair textures. Here’s how to use it.

Step 1. Shake the can well and hold it four to six inches away from your hair.

Step 2. Spray the color onto the hair evenly. Wait a few minutes for the hair to dry.

Step 3. Add more color if you want a more saturated hue or move on to styling if you’re satisfied with the color. The hair color spray will come out with one wash so you can experiment just for a day if you’d like.

5 Hairstyles to Pair With Colorista 1-Day Hair Color Spray

Don’t just stop at giving your hair a fun color, pair your new rainbow hue with one of these hairstyles that always makes a lasting impression.

1. Fishtail Braid

2. Bubble Ponytail

The bubble ponytail is not only a simple, beautiful hairstyle to incorporate some color into, but it’s great for the warm weather because it keeps your hair out of your face. To make this ‘do fitting for a Pride celebration, spray each of the various sections of the ponytail different colors. For the hair at your crown, you can get creative with it; either leave it your natural shade, apply a solid wash of color to it, or create a design with the hair color spray. 

3. Peek-a-boo Rainbow Undercut

Peek-a-boo hair lets you tuck your rainbow away when you don’t want it to be seen, and it’s especially alluring with an undercut hairstyle. Add stars, flowers, hearts or smiley faces to your style to add even more pizzazz to your alluring ‘do. It’ll look stunning when you have it flipped to either side if you opt for a vibrant hue on the uniform side, like a deep green, midnight blue or jet black.

4. Space Buns

No hairstyle screams fun and joy quite like space buns — making them a fitting style for Pride. Take the style up a notch by adding some color to the buns. If symmetry is what you’re about, pick your favorite shade of the Colorista spray and coat both buns evenly. If you want to sport a plethora of colors, let your creativity run wild and color each bun how you please. 

5. Rainbow Mohawk

A mohawk in the summer just feels like a sensible choice; it keeps hair out of your face and off your neck, and it’s easy to style. Use temporary hair color spray to add even just a handful of colors to yours and that’ll make this standout style even more eye-catching.

 Editor’s tip: If you want to complete your colorful Pride look, opt for a makeup look to complement your hairstyle. Try some bright eyeshadow, a vibrant lippie or even a colored mascara, like the L’Oréal Paris Voluminous Original Washable Bold Eye Mascara.
